Says some very flattering things about Canada -- I just wish it were true.
John Ralston Saul posits that Canada needs to turn to it's Aboriginal roots in order to face the future. "A Fair Country" challenges all Canadians to find our true voice as a nation; to re-evaluate what it means to be Canadian; to look to our rich Metis heritage for inspiration and to our founding politicians belief that Canada could be a unique experiment where, "Peace, Welfare, and Good Government" could thrive. Ultimately, "A Fair Country: Telling Truths About Canada" is an interesting and worthwhile read.
intellectual and lots of data mining
